    • To the team at Centacare, Thankyou for hosting a beautiful spring party for all the children today. As a parent I thoroughly enjoyed watching my child play and participate with her peers.  The joy and excitement your team brought to the morning was contagious. How can you not smile and be happy when all those around you are. Seeing  your staff engaged with the children as well as the parents and truly seeming  to enjoy themselves is commendable and I wish to give you all a high five for job well done. I was so impressed, and thought this acknowledgment was well deserved. Thankyou
